Since beginning his career with The Beatles in the 1960s, Ringo Starr has been one of the world’s brightest musical luminaries. Throughout his career he has received nine Grammys, has twice been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame first as a Beatle and then as solo artist. Between 1970 and 2015 Ringo has released 18 solo studio records.
In 1989 Ringo assembled his first All Starr Band and he found consistent success as a live act with his revolving All Starrs. As part of the 2024 All Starr band, Ringo Starr is joined by:
-
-
- Warren Ham – Ham has done it all – From hitting the high notes with Ringo Starr in “With a Little Help From My Friends” to playing the saxophone on Men at Work’s “Who Can it Be Now?” to his time with the band Toto on songs such as “Africa”, “Hold the Line”, and “Rosanna”.
-
-
-
- Edgar Winter – Best known for his magnificent 1973 hit single “Frankenstein”, Winter embraced every form of music, starting with jazz and classical before moving on to blues and eventually what became his own distinct brand of a very progressive rock.
-
-
-
- Steve Lukather – As a member of Toto with hit singles “Hold the Line”, “I’ll Supply the Love”, “Georgy Porgy” and the incredibly popular “Africa” and “Rosanna” which have become timeless classics.

- Hamish Stuart – An original member of the Average White Band with hit singles “Pick Up the Pieces” and “Cut the Cake”. Stuart has arranged and played on “I’m Every Woman” and “Whatcha Gonna Do For Me” for Chaka Khan, and from 1989 to 1993 recorded five albums with Paul McCartney.
-
-
-
- Colin Hay – As a key member of the band Men at Work, hit singles such as “Who Can It Be Now?” and “Down Under” earned international fame for the band.

For all his many creative successes, Ringo always will be first and foremost a musician, and a drummer. Peace and love are his life’s rhythm and melody, and he propels this universal message in everything he does: his evocative artwork, his enthused live performances, his legendary songs, all imbued with the joy, reflection, and wisdom of the music icon the world knows and loves simply as ‘Ringo.’
